The Valley Italy - Paradise in the mountains
We live in a beautiful small town called Vallemaio in central south Italy. It is really like a paradise, peaceful, has stunning scenery and the kind of air that makes you sniff like a vacuum haha. We grow ALOT of our own food on our land, all organic with many fruit trees and grapevines, which we are continuing to plant always learning as we go. We also have many animals, dogs, cats, goats, chickens.. Here you will experience the real Italy, the smells, the food, the traditions, old and new. Meet lovely people, try new things...We run our own tourism business called THE VALLEY ITALY check us out on IG. We offer Glamping in traditional stone huts and a campsite. We have many guests all year round from around the world. We are also artists, growers and involved in lots of different things, learning always!
We hope to meet people who share our passion for life, learning and having a good time.
